Okkervil River

You can wash out your lying eyes
In that bathroom down the hall

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised
Guess I didn’t know you at all

But I can picture you inside some stranger’s house,
Inside some stranger’s bed
You’re trying to seem mysterious
The covers pulled over your head, It's alright

Lady liberty, it’s just too bad you couldn’t do the same for me

You say you’ve been used
You’ve been betrayed
Yeah, and that old bed’s been newly made

You just stick around awhile with me
Until you’re strong enough to leave

Cause I can picture you the first time you decide to spend the night
You wonder if you should give me a call and ask me if it’s all right
Yeah, it’s all right

Lady liberty, it’s just too bad you couldn’t do the same for me

Don’t call me or send me any more letters, baby.
I just can’t stand to see your hand writing things that you don’t mean.

I waited, our faded love growing even more faded.
The shades were down, I faced the wall, and I could hear you breathing.

I tried to bring us back to life.
I gave my heart so many times
And was it worth it after all?

There is a bathroom down the hall
There is a bathroom down the hall
There is a bathroom down the hall

And I guess I didn't know you all
I guess I didn't know you all

Lady Liberty, Liberty, Liberty
Maybe It's time to leave you.
